Fairytales
are Fragile, by Cindy Ladage

In 1939, when the
threat of war drifts over Vienna, young Ilyana Verner sails across the
Atlantic to emigrate to the US. She and her mother plan to join
relatives in Chicago, but a shipboard romance changes things.

As her mother
re-marries, Ilyana finds herself torn between two men—the unabashed
pursuit of rough and wild Connie O’Brien, and the subdued attentions
of Andy Henry, a serious-minded student at Harvard Law.

A night of passion
under a San Francisco moon changes everything—and now a child must be
considered. How
will Ilyana choose between the man she loves and the one who laid
claim to her?
